I knew last year the way we played with 3-4 situations, and that's what nolans specialty, he turned the 49ers in what defense they are, also the dolphins, they sucked before Nolan got there. He's one I hope we keep for some years. I wish they would make him co-head coach with Smitty. We had to go 3-4 to get a 4-3 end is such a crap shoot, and getting Jedaveon Clowney, I knows hes a freak of nature, but him taking plays off, scares the crap out of me. Its like he's lazy. I know it doesn't mean he will do it in the pros. I just would feel a lot better if we got Khalil Mack. Or Matthews or Greg Robinson. We need to shore up the O-line we used to have it but better. To give Matt time to throw and we need to get a replacement now for Snelling, that really surprised me. He did so much for us, being a running back, back up full back and he had good hands too. We need a backup full back besides Cox and a change of pace back, Like the fastest one we can get that's got good hands to switch out with Stephen Jackson and Jaquizz Rodgers.

I love all the pick ups like hester and javiar Arenas. We got KR and PR covered now, and a 4-5 headed dragon with receivers. I pray Toulio learned from Tony G. Having that much speed on wide receivers especially if we can stay healthy, Good Lord matt will have some targets to throw to and too many to cover that can burn you. We got to get the O-line together.

But back to the 3-4, Soliari was a great pickup, but we have to get a backup, but him as NT, BABS at DE and Rodgers at DE, weight wise were perfect for 3-4. With OSI and OLB and Weatherspoon at ILB and if we pick up Khalil Mack at ILB, With Bierman as the other OLB. We could have one hell of a defense, Hope we pick up a good safety for Decoud. I liked him, but after last year, the year before seemed it was all luck. I feel sorry for him, I like him and Moore, But we need someone that can tackle and be a ball hawk.

Also I have been around, during the off season I read yall a bunch and listen to the radio. lol :) Can't wait for the season to start. Saints are getting weak as shit and were doing the opposite and Nolan is tons better then Ryan is at the 3-4 for the Saints.

One team though, I hope we kick the shit out of is the Carolina panthers, after last year they jumped up in hatred, Their equal with the Saints now for hatred for them. Bucs look better, but I still thing we will stomp them.

Everyone seems to forget Worrilow and Bartu. They played their asses off for a pair of undrafted LBs. I don't think the coaches have forgotten them. Mack would be a waste as an ILB. He will be very good on the outside.

I think everyone gets caught up on Clowney and the idea that he takes plays off or is lazy and that Mack never does. I don't think either player is lazy. I think it all has to do with their environments.

Clowney was always the best player in high school, one of the best in college. Where ever he was all he had to do was give a little effort and he was dominate. If he takes plays off or acts lazy that falls on his coaches for not getting more out of him. He has never had to prove himself, so why should he?

Mack has always had to prove himself. As good as he was in high school, there was no interest in him from major colleges. He went to a small college where he had to bust his ass everyday to be considered elite. Even then people point out how he didn't have a great game against Baylor. Man, he played hard every game. Baylor was the best offense. He did alright for being the only decent defender on the field.

That's the difference. One player has to prove himself every game, the other doesn't. With the right coaching they both will excel.

totally disagree with jesus on clowney. it's not the coaches responsibilty to make a player have heart. Who cares if he's always been the 'best' where ever he's been. As for 'why should he'? well because it would show he has heart and a killer instinct. He doesn't show that, cause he doesn't have it.

He'll take plays off in the pros, and it will come back and bite him in the ass. I see a mike vick type career (without the dog fighting, but then again who knows). He'll find himself on a team that loses a lot, there will be games that once it's obvious there's no chance to win, we'll start hearing of him taking himself out of games, or some small 'injury' to 'save himself for when it really matters'

NFL history is full of players who had tons of talent up through college, but didn't have the heart to be their absolute best who fell by the wayside after a few years of realizing they weren't the big fish in the small pond anymore.

I personally believe this will be clowney. Once he realizes it won't be so easy for him, he doesn't have the heart to push to be better, and he'll flop out.

I really hope we focus on OLine, Matthews, Robinson, LeWan, Zack Martin........and hopefully one of the top three free safeties

I've been wanting Mack, but after watching the Falconcast with Jay Adams last week I'm leaning more towards Robinson or Matthews. We dont know what our guys can do in a 3-4 scheme so why not give them at least the opportunity. Haters gonna hate but I believe that Kroy is gonna shine as an OLB in the 3-4. We KNOW we need help on the offensive line. And considering Matt has taken such a beating, I'm leaning towards Matthews over Robinson because A) Robinson probably wont be there and B) Matthews is being called the safest pick in the draft. I bet Matt Ryan likes the word "Safe" when it comes to people protecting him.

Now Safety... draft someone in the 2nd or 3rd round and sign someone like Ryan Clark to a 1 year deal to plug in and be the secondary Veteran

IF we can trade back and get LeWan, I'd be happy with that too. He will be there in the early teens

To be honest, if Matthews or Robinson is there especially Matthews, I would take them over Clowney or mack, just because of Matthews pedigree, his family its like a player that will be there for 10 years. And I agree we need a bulldozer in the oline for Greg Hardy types. I have always thought Bierman would be a better linebacker than a DE, especially his speed. D led has us dropping down and grabbing a safety and the best TE in the draft, a kind of 2 for 1. Us grabbing Dmitroffs old boss, we are probably seeing the killer scouting that the patriots HAD, Its now ours. As long as we put a hurting on the Saints and the Panthers I would love to see us sack Cam newton 6 times and Matt not get touched once. Because think about it we could go 5 wide all the time, Roddy, Julio, Hester, Harry D and Stephen Jackson and Toulio that's 6. but we could force teams to play in nickel or dime the whole game and audible to runs or screens especially going no Huddle. Could be what Roddy said, Greatest Show on Turf 2, All depends on the O-line.

Beef I agree, he is a turd, I don't want us giving the farm for 2 spots, either. 6 in the 1st round person we could get a damn good 10 year player. Or at least 7, if its defensive. I just want a lineman or a LB.
